1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Never once in 17 years of driving have I filled up with the gas tank on the opposite side of the pump. To be honest, for most of that time I didn't even realize it was possible lol. I rarely see anyone doing it. And this is in Socal where gas pumps can get crazy packed.

 

I understand if the hose doesn't reach but at those Costco stations, it will reach without issue and you can still be parked perfectly in-line. I just don't see a reason to sit waiting if the passenger side pump line is shorter/faster. I guess since I only fill up at Costco - its just what I'm used to I guess.

 

Actually the only time I have done this was when I was with my wife and we filled up her car at Costco...I've never had a membership there until recently but she always fills up there. Our closest one is out of the way for me most times so I rarely go there for gas, but I can see how it makes sense in that situation.

 

Man I haven’t been to costco in forever, i want a food now lol. I love the food court there

 

I’ve only ever seen it done at Costco Gas. I guess people are just impatient.

 

now you are definitely getting a costco cart tossed into the back of stinkbug - why? because I am impatient and have no time to wheel it to the cart corral

 

Good luck finding me.

 

Aight, guess its time to rip these leafs out. Hopefully Ill be done by dark.

 

Are the fasteners rusty?

 

Dude this is my 3rd time doing this job. This year.

 

Leafs are easy.
You will be fine

 

you guys listen to The Woody Show on the radio? Used to only be a local show here in Los Angeles but it went national this past year....anyway they have a segment called "Cart Narcs" where one of them goes around LA to different grocery stores and busts people for not returning their shopping carts (confronts them and records their excuses...or their violent defense mechanisms lol). It's hilarious.

 

I feel your pain

 

Gets faster every time though. Im going at a Nascar pit crew pace. 30 mins and the pass side is out.

 

Did you make sure the gap between the clutch and plate is in spec. If it’s too far it’ll not engage. There’s little spacers behind the clutch to set the distance

 

What failed on them?

 

Thickness of the paper in a paper matchbook is about right.

 

lol

too bad there isn't a 'shame people who don't finish their lift' show... can just picture it now

 

yeah I love that segment lol. I always return my carts and I usually park far away from most people at grocery stores because most people are so careless with their carts. People's excuses are funny..."I'm giving the cart collectors more of a job to do! They'd be jobless if it weren't for me!" yeah okay bud...next time you're in a bathroom, shit all over the wall instead of the toilet so the janitor has a job to do.
